Hi Robin, yep got the sports diff, audi drive select (ADS), damper control, so on. 

The face-lifted 2013 S4 apparently has better fuel consumption. It has stop-start tech + other fuel saving bits.  I'm expecting to get mpg in the late 20s and perhaps even 30mpg, but hey I'm not getting this motor for its green credentials....

I'm hoping to pick the car some time during the week commencing the 4 March. Not too long to wait.

What sort of driving are you doing to expect late 20's/30mpg - Mostly motorway?  The ED35 just manages 30 on the motorway at 75mph, thats a big ask of a heavier 3.0.  I will be interested to see the result of both the mpg and the re-map :driver:

Blimey just been looking at these on RS246, it seems that 450bhp+ is acheivable from just a re-map, and high 30MPG if driving like a granny.  All of this is ridiculous for a big car like the S4.

There'll be one way to find out for sure... perhaps a week and half to go!  :party:


Not a face-lifted S4 but the sports diff info. remains relevant http://youtu.be/viWJUaakMKs
